Felons are not the persons who are doing the mass-killings of children and others. We do not need to keep felons from getting guns in order to make our school children safer.

Perhaps we can pass laws and establish screenings to pinpoint such persons before they indulge in slaughter. Such programs would conform to the thesis of those who say that “guns do not kill people; people kill people.”
